Quotes from Erich Schiffmann

It is not arrogant or egotistical to feel good inside. You had nothing to do with it. It's simply the honest response to clearly perceived Reality.

Yoga is about how you live your life all of the time.

Stillness is not the absence or negation of energy, life, or movement. Stillness is dynamic. It is unconflicted movement, life in harmony with itself, skill in action. It can be experienced whenever there is total, uninhibited, unconflicted participation in the moment you are in—when you are wholeheartedly present with whatever you are doing.

Don't teach necessarily what others teachers are teaching. Find what it is that you have to offer and teach that.

Love is what's left when you let go of everything you don't need.

The purpose of Yoga is to facilitate the profound inner relaxation that accompanies fearlessness. The release from fear is what finally precipitates the full flowering of love.

Experience yourself in silence.

Practicing yoga during the day is a matter of keeping your eyes on the road and one ear turned toward the infinite.

Yoga ia a way of moving into stillness in order to experience the truth of who you are.
